Uranium isotope compositions of the basaltic angrite meteorites and the chronological implications for the early Solar System.
Events occurring within the first 10 million years of the Solar System's approximately 4.5 billion-year history, such as formation of the first solids, accretion, and differentiation of protoplanetary bodies, have determined the evolutionary course of our Solar System and the planetary bodies within it. The application of high-resolution chronometers based on short-lived radionuclides is critic...
متن کاملA brief introduction into the Greenland U-Pb Geochronology Database
Geochronology aims to establish the age of rocks, minerals, and geological events including fluid movement and mineralization, within a specific degree of uncertainty, using signatures inherent in the rocks themselves. Absolute dating is only accomplished through the use of naturally-occurring radioactive isotopes found within geological samples. The U–Th–Pb isotopic system is the benchmark for...
متن کاملRe-Os ISOCHRON FOR ALLEGAN (H5): RECONCILING
Introduction: Beta decay of Re is characterized by the lowest known decay energy, which makes direct counting determination of the decay constant very difficult. The best direct estimate for λRe (1.64·10 y ±3.1%) was obtained by the radiochemical in-growth method [1]. This result was generally accepted for geochronology, although its uncertainty precludes precise comparison of Re-Os ages with o...
متن کاملWeathering of Ordinary Chondrites from the Atacama Desert, Chile: First Results from Mössbauer Spectroscopy
The lunar meteorites have valuable informations for understanding the evolution of the Moon’s crust, because each meteorite may potentially provide a new insight into the thermal history of unexplored regions of the Moon. In spite of their scientific interests, chronological studies of Very-Low-Ti (VLT) basaltic meteorites have not be well understood, since the most VLT basalt meteorites are br...
متن کاملChronology of Asteroid Accretion and Differentiation
The study of short-lived, now extinct radionuclides offers constraints on the duration of planetesimal formation and on other processes and events, which took place in the early solar system. The relative chronometers based on the decay of 53Mn to 53Cr (T1/2 = 3.7 m.y.) and of 26Al to 26Mg (T1/2 = 0.73 m.y.) provide an adequate time resolution of at least 1 m.y. A calibration of these relative ...
